Marie has TOO MUCH EMOTION. She really needs to learn the ART of the DEADFACE before she can apply for legendary extra status.

I've missed a few eppys, and tuned in today to see pretty much a whole new cast.

 

I like Kim, she's a definite keeper. I love the book club scenes, MORE please.

Also whoever the old woman in the fruity African clothing is, let's keep her.

 

And is Marie From The Caff the new Tracy?!

 

I did the same, I missed quite a few and I was like :huh:

 

And I completley agree on Kim and the other woman, they were both very funny and instantly likeable.

 

but seriously why does every woman go near Max, what do they see in him, he is repugnant, seriously? :puke2:

Loving the new cast additions. So nice to see fresh faces who are actually likeable!

 

How random to see Marie join book club. Random: on the official character/cast list it lists Marie as Marie Evans - while the social worker is Derek Evans - Mr and Mrs perhaps?

 

One ep in and already Arthur more likeable with Grace and Mercy! Sooner Leon is gone the better for everyone!

 

 

Vanessa has another five episodes to go before she disappears for another few months and then makes a more full-time return apparently. A bit disappointed that she'll be off screen practically as suddenly as she came but it's something to look forward to I suppose.

Week Commencing 14/21

 

Tuesday: 19:00 [1 hour]

Friday: 19:00 [30 minutes]

 

And that's all. :( Hopefully there'll be a couple more episodes during w/c 21st. :(

^ Only missing one episode really. Sure they'll throw in another hour ep somewhere else.

 

It's gonna be a mess for all soaps over coming weeks.

Oh, yeah, didn't notice that! :lol: But it's still a big break. :P

Apart from Hollyoaks. :kink:

Probably total nonsense ... but I read somewhere that Melissa Suffield was axed, not just due to poor performances, but due to her behaviour off-screen also, which they were "sick of".

^I thought that was the confirmed report though? It certainly makes sense since unlike Madeline Duggan (Lauren), Melissa Suffield has although not very consistent in her acting has established herself on the show.

ZSA ZSA IN A SCHOOL UNIFORM ZSA ZSA IN A SCHOOL UNIFORM!

So apparently Lauren's exit

involves her going to Summer camp in America. That isn't exactly a permanent exit though so I wonder if the producers are just buying themselves time to cast somebody else.

 

 

Don't forget EE is on tonight at 7.30.

Shirley's wonderful ... she has all the best lines.

 

Norma

Loved the episode tonight, especially Jade's 15 minutes of fame. :wub: Would've LOVED for her to be a regular! :(

Loved Vanessa's pot noodle line. Zoe Lucker needs to hang around after her next 3 month stint! :heart:

 

Great ep tonight. :)

Phil Mitchell becomes a crack head.

Yes, seriously.

Oh the humanity.

Not surprising when you think of Phil's history and personality.

 

If anyone can carry the story it's Steve imo.

 

 

Yes, big hopes for that. Steve's the best (male) actor on the show, so...

Steve will nail that storyline as thats the kind of stuff he is best at.

 

I have to say hasnt Lucas turned out to be agreat charactor he is building and building after a slow enough introduction but he is so complex now u just never know what he will do next.

OMG Denise was actually amazing tonight. I'm so glad they're utilising her properly again now. LONG overdue.
